Central Jersey Bancorp Press Release
Central Jersey Bancorp Reports Operating Results for Third Quarter of 2009
OAKHURST, NEW JERSEY, October 22, 2009 (NASDAQ Global Market: CJBK):
Central Jersey Bancorp, the parent company of Central Jersey Bank, N.A., reported net income and net income available to common shareholders of $920,000 and $734,000, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2009, as compared to $1.03 million for both for the same period in 2008. The net income available to common shareholders figure takes into account $186,000 in preferred stock dividends paid to the U.S. Department of the Treasury as part of the Capital Purchase Program during the three months ended September 30, 2009. Basic and diluted earnings per share for the three months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 were $0.08 and $0.11, respectively.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, Central Jersey Bancorp reported net income and net income available to common shareholders, excluding a non-cash goodwill impairment charge, of $1.9 million and $1.3 million, respectively, as compared to $2.3 million for both for the same period in 2008. The net income available to common shareholders figure takes into account $557,000 in preferred stock dividends paid to the U.S. Department of the Treasury as part of the Capital Purchase Program during the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The decrease in net income is primarily attributable to $4.5 million in provision for loan losses recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2009, resulting from credit deterioration due to general economic conditions. This charge was partly mitigated by $2.8 million in gains realized from the sale of investment securities during the period. Central Jersey Bancorp recognized a second quarter $27.0 million goodwill impairment charge, resulting in a net loss available to common shareholders of $25.6 million for the first nine months of 2009. Basic and diluted loss per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 were ($2.82), as compared to basic and diluted earnings per share of $0.25 and $0.24, respectively, for the same period in 2008. Per share earnings were adjusted in all periods to reflect the 5% stock dividend paid on July 1, 2008.
The $27.0 million in goodwill was recorded on January 1, 2005 in conjunction with the combination with Allaire Community Bank. The goodwill impairment charge was a non-cash adjustment to Central Jersey Bancorp’s financial statements which did not affect cash flows, liquidity, or tangible capital. As goodwill is excluded from regulatory capital, the impairment charge did not impact regulatory capital ratios of Central Jersey Bancorp or Central Jersey Bank, N.A., both of which remain “well-capitalized” under regulatory requirements. The goodwill impairment charge was recorded in accordance with SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, which requires an interim goodwill impairment analysis under certain events including “a more-likely-than-not expectation that a reporting unit will be sold.”
The respective shareholders of Central Jersey Bancorp and OceanFirst Financial Corp. approved the merger of Central Jersey Bancorp with and into OceanFirst Financial Corp. at special meetings of shareholders held by each company on October 1, 2009. OceanFirst Financial Corp. and Central Jersey Bancorp expect to consummate the merger in the fourth quarter of 2009. Completion of the merger remains subject to regulatory approval and certain other conditions in accordance with the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of May 25, 2009, by and between OceanFirst Financial Corp. and Central Jersey Bancorp. Upon closing, Central Jersey Bancorp shareholders will receive 0.50 share of OceanFirst Financial Corp. common stock for each Central Jersey Bancorp share held.
Results of Operations
Net interest income was $4.7 million and $13.8 million for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2009, respectively, as compared to $5.0 million and $13.6 million, respectively, for the same periods in 2008. Net interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 was comprised primarily of $5.4 million in interest and fees on loans during each period, $1.2 million and $2.0 million, respectively, in interest on investment securities and $61,000 and $60,000, respectively, in interest income on federal funds sold and due from banks, less interest expense on deposits of $1.7 million and $2.0
million, respectively, interest expense on borrowed funds of $236,000 and $429,000, respectively, and interest expense on subordinated debentures of $43,000 and $78,000, respectively. Net interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 was comprised primarily of $15.4 million and $15.8 million, respectively, in interest and fees on loans, $4.6 million and $5.5 million, respectively, in interest on investment securities and $198,000 and $332,000, respectively, in interest income on federal funds sold and due from banks, less interest expense on deposits of $5.5 million and $6.9 million, respectively, interest expense on borrowed funds of $730,000 and $989,000, respectively, and interest expense on subordinated debentures of $150,000 and $252,000, respectively.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, the average yield on interest-earning assets was 4.33% and 4.98%, respectively, as compared to 5.87% and 5.96%, respectively, for the same periods in 2008. The average cost of deposits and interest-bearing liabilities for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 was 1.71% and 1.90%, respectively, as compared to an average cost of 2.45% and 2.77%, respectively, for the same periods in 2008. The decrease in both the average yield on interest-earning assets and the average cost of deposits and interest-bearing liabilities for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 was primarily due to the significant reduction in the general level of short term interest rates and the 500 basis point reduction in the Prime Rate of interest which occurred between September 2007 and December 2008. The average net interest margin for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 was 3.38% and 3.35%, respectively, as compared to 3.99% and 3.78%, respectively, for the same periods in 2008. The market remains very competitive for deposit and loan pricing.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, the provision for loan losses was $1.1 million and $4.5 million, respectively, as compared to $252,000 and $399,000, respectively, for the same periods in 2008. The recorded provision for loan losses was mostly related to the credit risk rating downgrade of certain performing loans, a $2.5 million increase in the specific reserve of certain impaired loans and loan charge-offs totaling $717,000. The significant increase in the provision for loan losses is due to the credit deterioration of certain commercial and commercial real estate loans as a result of general economic conditions.
Non-interest income, which consists of gains on the sale of investment securities available-for-sale, service charges on deposit accounts, gains on the sale of loans held-for-sale and income from bank owned life insurance, was $1.5 million and $4.5 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, as compared to $844,000 and $2.0 million, respectively, for the same period in 2008. Of this amount, gains on the sale of investment securities available-for-sale totaled $731,000 and $2.8 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, as compared to $340,000 and $402,000, respectively, for the same periods in 2008. Gains on the sale of loans held-for-sale were $304,000 and $510,000, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, as compared to $81,000 and $348,000, respectively, for the same periods in 2008.
Non-interest expense was $4.1 million and $39.1 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, as compared to $4.0 million and $11.7 million for the same periods in 2008. The increase in non-interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was directly related to the one-time, $27.0 million non-cash goodwill impairment charge. Non-interest expense generally includes costs associated with employee salaries and benefits, occupancy expenses, data processing fees, core deposit intangible amortization and other operating expenses.
Financial Condition
Central Jersey Bancorp’s assets, at September 30, 2009, totaled $577.7 million, a decrease of $21.7 million, or 3.6%, from the December 31, 2008 total of $599.4 million. The decrease in total assets was due primarily to the one-time, non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $27.0 million.
Cash and cash equivalents were $71.0 million at September 30, 2009, an increase of $61.2 million over the December 31, 2008 total of $9.8 million. The increase in liquidity is due primarily to the timing of cash flows related to Central Jersey Bank, N.A.’s business activities and the sale of investment securities.
Investment securities totaled $114.2 million at September 30, 2009, a decrease of $71.2 million, or 38.4%, from the December 31, 2008 total of $185.4 million. The decrease was primarily due to the sale of $119.4 million of mortgage backed securities, $37.1 million of municipal bond and note obligations and $10.0 million of government-sponsored agency securities. For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, principal pay downs of securities totaled $24.6 million, purchases of mortgage-backed securities totaled $43.2 million, municipal bond and note obligations totaled $94.1 million, purchases of government-sponsored agency securities totaled $21.8 million, $35.3 million of government-sponsored agency securities were matured and/or called, $707,000 of municipal bonds were matured and/or called and net premium/discount amortization totaled $2.4 million. In addition, at September 30, 2009, the net change of the unrealized gain on available-for-sale securities decreased by $881,000 from December 31, 2008.
There were no loans held-for-sale at September 30, 2009, as compared to $400,000 at December 31, 2008. The decrease in loans held-for-sale is due primarily to the timing of residential mortgage loan closings.
Loans, net of the allowance for loan losses, totaled $371.5 million at September 30, 2009, an increase of $15.2 million, or 4.3%, over the $356.3 million balance at December 31, 2008. Gross loans totaled $380.2 million at September 30, 2009, an increase of $19.2 million, or 5.3%, over the $361.0 million balance at December 31, 2008. The increase in loan balances was due primarily to the origination of commercial real estate loans, consumer home equity loans and lines of credit during the period off set by principal pay downs.
Deposits, at September 30, 2009, totaled $459.8 million, an increase of $41.0 million, or 9.8%, over the December 31, 2008 total of $418.8 million. The increase in deposit balances was reflective of continued core deposit growth that occurred throughout Central Jersey Bank, N.A.’s retail franchise.
Other borrowings were $54.1 million at September 30, 2009, as compared to $71.7 million at December 31, 2008, a decrease of $17.6 million, or 25.0%. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in overnight borrowings of $27.5 million to a zero balance at September 30, 2009. This was offset by the growth in the bank’s subsidiary’s sweep account product for business customers of $10.0 million.
At September 30, 2009, book value per share and tangible book value per share were $4.95 and $4.82, respectively, as compared to $7.91 and $4.75, respectively, at December 31, 2008.
Asset Quality
The allowance for loan losses (“ALL”), which began the year at $4.7 million, or 1.31% of total loans, increased to $8.7 million at September 30, 2009, or 2.28% of total loans. Non-performing loans totaled $21.1 million at September 30, 2009, as compared to $2.7 million at December 31, 2008. The increase in non-performing loans was due primarily to certain commercial loans which were placed on non-accrual status and/or deemed to be impaired during the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The loans which were deemed to be impaired required a specific reserve in accordance with SFAS No. 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan. There were $2,000 and $717,000, respectively, in loan charge-offs during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, as compared to no loan charge-offs for the same periods in 2008.
